 Romance reader. I love historical romance and smart, sexy contemporaries.

The Earl in My Bed - Sophie Jordan This was a charming, delightful quick read about Paget, the daughter of a vicar, and Jamie, the new Earl of Winnigham. Paget always thought she would marry Jamie's younger brother but with Owen off to war, she has come to realize her feelings are more platonic. Jamie is suddenly stirring up new feelings that she never thought she could feel for this cold, uptight man. Jamie knows that Paget belongs to Owen, even though there is no formal engagement, but with his new, unexpected duties, the girl from his childhood is beckoning to him, making him rethink his views of her just being a lowly vicars daughter.Even though this is short, it packs quite a bit into the story. Jamie always felt like an outcast amongst his brothers and Paget, envied their easy companionship and it has made Paget disregard him. However, there is a spark that flares from Paget's bold treatment of Jamie and it was a pleasure watching Jamie uncover his true feelings and show a more softer side. I did feel like the "I love yous" were a bit quick and easy but that comes with the shorter length. This was a very appetizing story that has really piqued my interest in Owens story, which is next in this series, [b:How to Lose a Bride in One Night|16065425|How to Lose a Bride in One Night (Forgotten Princesses, #3)|Sophie Jordan|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1359004390s/16065425.jpg|21856058] and I know I will be reading it to see how he deals with this turn of events! For a quick, emotionally satisfying romance with a dash of heat, this one is a solid choice. 3 1/2 starseARC provided by Avon Books via edelweiss
